▼ Management of violent acts by patients and visitors in the ambulatory care environment is an important issue that research has not addressed. This report utilizes research conducted in inpatient
healthcare settings regarding violence, patient and visitor risk factors for violence, staff characteristics that increase the likelihood of victimization, and the impact violent acts have on staff morale as well as impacts on patients’ perceived quality of care. Identification of interventions to de-escalate aggressive patients and visitors from research conducted within the inpatient environment is synthesized for evaluation of its application to ambulatory care. Feedback regarding these risk factors from clinic staff in the ambulatory care environment and content experts is analyzed to further develop interventions to promote staff safety specific to the ambulatory care environment.

▼ A growing body of evidence reveals the importance of
primary care to the overall health of populations, resulting in an increasing interest in efficient, effective, timely and equitable delivery of
primary care services. This research focuses on two perspectives of delivering
primary care. First, the work focuses on the quality of
primary care delivery, represented by distribution of facilities that provide
primary care on different quality levels and incur varying costs on the regulator. The proposed model optimizes the geographic distribution of facilities (locations and types) and provides tradeoffs between two objectives - the quality of provided care and the annual operating cost. The Pampalon deprivation index is incorporated directly as a proxy of varying needs, as it was correlated with complex health-care problems, more frequent visits and barriers to obtain care. Results are showcased on the area of Kingston, Ontario. Second, the distribution of general practitioners is addressed, measured in terms of general practitioners (GPs) per population. Many countries are experiencing inequitable distribution of GPs, such that does not match the distribution of the population. It usually results from the fact that health professionals are choosing practice locations according to their own preferences and considerations. To address this issue, human choice is incorporated into the modeling approach explicitly, using Huff’s spatial interactions approach. The utilities of the professionals when choosing communities are modeled, affecting in turn the probabilities of location choice. The presented model explores the option of modifying policies so that the resulting distribution of general practitioners in the studied geographic area will be more equitable. As an example, educational policies are explored, devising the optimal locations of residency training of family physicians and their background combinations (at each training location) for Ontario. The developed methodologies showcased for the province of Ontario, Canada, however they are general enough to be used in any jurisdiction with similar characteristics.

▼ This study addresses the
healthcare needs of employees and their families living in the Kruger National Park (KNP). A quantitative, explorative, descriptive research design was used to interview respondents who comprised of 75 male and female employees with children of various ages.
The findings revealed that physical, psychological, environmental, socio-cultural, and behavioural needs of the employees and their families living in the KNP is probably unattainable as
healthcare services are poorly distributed throughout the KNP, being mostly concentrated in the main camp of Skukuza.
A number of respondents indicated that they required consultations about psychological and socio-cultural stresses in their lives. These services are not available in the KNP.

▼ Few instruments have been developed to assess patient physical activity (PA) in primary healthcare, nor assessed for validity. The purpose of these studies was to provide evidence of validity for a PA “vital sign” (PAVS) self-reported by clinic staff and patients and for the PA portion of the Speedy Nutrition and PA assessment (SNAP). Criterion validity of the PAVS and SNAP was assessed in clinic staff by agreement with accelerometry (accel). Construct validity of the PAVS was assessed by using electronic health records (EHRs) to examine odds of BMI and Charlson Comorbidity Index categories for patients reporting to the PAVS as not meeting 2008 Aerobic PA Guidelines for Americans (PAG) compared to patients meeting PAG. Concurrent validity of the PAVS was assessed by associating patient responses to the PAVS with concurrent responses to a Modifiable Activity Questionnaire (MAQ).The PAVS and SNAP correlated moderately strongly with accel identifying days/week clinic staff (N = 45) achieved ≥30 minutes (min) of moderate-vigorous PA (MVPA) performed at least 10 min. at a time (PAVS, r 0.52, p < 0.001; SNAP, r 0.31, p < 0.05). Of 34,712 eligible outpatient visits, patients who did not meet PAG according to the PAVS were more likely than normal weight patients to have a higher BMI (BMI 25.0-29.9, OR = 1.19, p = 0.001; BMI 30-34.9, OR = 1.39, p < 0.0001; BMI 35.0-39.9, OR = 2.42, p < 0.0001; BMI ≥ 40, OR = 3.7, p < 0.0001). Likewise, patients who did not meet PAG were also significantly more likely to have a higher disease burden (above 50th Charlson percentile, OR = 1.8, p < 0.0001). Of 269 eligible patient-participants, the PAVS agreed with the MAQ 89.6% of the time identifying insufficiently active patients and demonstrated good agreement with the MAQ identifying patients meeting/not meeting PAG (k = .55, rho = 0.57; p < 0.0001). Usual min·wk-1 MVPA reported to the PAVS correlated strongly with the same construct reported to the MAQ (r = 0.71; p < 0.0001).The PAVS appears to be a useful and valid tool particularly for identifying patients who most need counseling for PA. The PAVS should be evaluated further for validity and repeatability with criterion measures of PA. The PAVS could be used within EHRs to improve estimates of PA-disease relationships and interventions aimed to improve patient PA.

▼ Background: Warfarin therapy is an integral component of
Primary Healthcare and is considered underutilised.
Primary Healthcare nurses are predominantly involved with long-term monitoring and collaborative management of Warfarin therapy. This research emanated from the paucity of qualitative research on patients’ own experience. The aims of this study were to explore
Primary Healthcare patients’ experience of initiation, monitoring and education of Warfarin. To explore patients’ beliefs, issues, concerns and behaviours regarding Warfarin, as well as exploring patients’ understanding of their relationships with
Primary healthcare professionals.
Methodology: The sample included four males and six females: eight who identified as New Zealand European and two New Zealand Māori. Ages ranged from forty-two to eighty-six years. Warfarin had been prescribed between six months to twenty-eight years. A qualitative inductive methodology adapted from Thomas’ (2003) framework was utilised to enable the participant’s experience and a deeper understanding to be illuminated. An inductive method enabled a straightforward, comprehensible and orderly procedure for data analysis, allowing an emergence, identification and interpretation of themes without confinement. The researcher used reflection to reduce bias and recognise the influence of prior experience to permit a true reflection of the participant’s perspective.
Results: Inductive data analysis revealed six key interrelated themes. These themes were impact, self, knowledge acquisition, information/misinformation, education and health professionals.
Conclusion: Warfarin therapy encroaches significantly into patients’ lives. Repercussions of Warfarin therapy are evident in many facets of life, not just health. Individual variance requires integration into practice of personality, differing learning styles and diversity of cultural health perspectives.
Primary care was valued as it provided trust, continuity of care, empowerment and ease of access. Nurses make positive contributions to patients on Warfarin; however, there is a possibility of role development. This is the first New Zealand qualitative study to highlight patients’ experience of Warfarin therapy in
Primary Care.

▼ Health literacy has traditionally been conceptualised as individual skills in a health context. Although there is growing consensus that health literacy is a multidimensional construct, interacting with socio-cultural contextual influences, such aspects are under-researched. In particular, there is limited research regarding the interrelationships between individuals’ and
primary healthcare professionals’ (PHCPs) health literacy beliefs and experiences. Despite the predicted impact of the ageing population on
healthcare costs and services, little empirical research has been conducted in New Zealand (NZ) on the health-related behaviour of the influential baby boomer cohort. The purpose of this thesis is to explore the phenomenon of health literacy among NZ baby boomers and PHCPs.
Using hermeneutics as both the theoretical lens and the research method, this research draws on in-depth interviews to understand the participants’ constructions of health literacy and how their constructions influence
healthcare goals and service encounters. The research takes a broad perspective of health literacy to answer the overarching research question, How are the roles and practices of health literacy perceived/constructed and performed in
primary healthcare?
This thesis makes an original contribution to knowledge as the first empirical investigation of health literacy of NZ baby boomers (46 participants) and NZ
primary healthcare professionals (11 participants). Specifically, this research contributes to health literacy knowledge in a geographic area (NZ) and among individuals within a generational cohort not defined by health condition or health risk.
NZ baby boomers construct health literacy as a highly contextualised social practice linked to [a]symmetries in health-related information, power, autonomy, and patient-practitioner roles. These participants stress the importance of an individual’s personal health context, capabilities, relational processes, and networks in health literacy. Interpreting these baby boomers’ health literacy behaviours leads to five categories of description - seeker, decider, networker, sensemaker, and manager, which are appropriately framed within two horizons of self and interactivity, providing conceptual space within which individuals move and adapt their health literacy roles, responsibilities, and behaviours.
In the PHCPs’ experiences regarding baby boomers’ health literacy there are underlying power and information imbalances, conflicting authority concerns, and [de-]professionalisation issues. Using categories of description, the PHCPs’ health literacy behaviours are described as – knowledge broker, ethical agent, and enabler. Iteratively drawing on pre-understandings, these meanings are theorised in a collective notion of managed empowerment that implies a negotiated balance between PHCP expert control and professional expertise, and patient-consumer autonomy and expertise.
This study extends the understanding of health literacy by presenting an empirically-based conceptual…

▼ Cognitive behaviour therapy is a well-documented first-line treatment for mild to
moderate depression. Primary healthcare providers have encountered several barriers
when trying to provide CBT in an office-based setting and as such, adoption of this
evidence-based treatment has been suboptimal. Primary healthcare nurse practitioners
(PHC NPs) have an in-depth knowledge of advanced nursing practice, and are
responsible for the assessment, diagnosis and management of patients with acute and
chronic conditions, such as depression. PHC NPs are also ideally situated in the health
care system to deliver CBT to their patients. The objectives of this project were to
develop a format for the delivery of brief CBT methods that was feasible in the PHC
setting, increase PHC providers’ confidence to implement CBT and ultimately increase
their adoption of CBT

▼ Introduction:
Healthcare policy in Ireland is in a state of transition due to an increased aging
population with chronic disease and co-morbidities, demands for services will rise. To help
reduce pressures on the acute hospital setting, more patients and services are being directed
towards general practice and
primary care services. As Irelands population increases and
chronic disease becomes more prevalent, demand on limited general practice services will
increase. Current and future predictions suggest that there are insufficient numbers of existing
General Practitioners (GPs) available to meet this increased demand. Globally, during times
of
healthcare workforce shortages, various health systems have adopted “task shifting”
models of
healthcare delivery, where certain roles or tasks are undertaken by alternative nonmedical personnel with less education and training, in order to alleviate some of the pressures
on limited medical personnel. Evidence suggests that there is an appetite among GPs for
change within other jurisdictions. Nursing roles within general practice are now considered to
be standard, yet alternative non-medical professional roles have not been explored within an
Irish context. Non-medical personnel such as Advanced Paramedics (APs) may have the
capability to provide support to general practice. APs are an untapped resource that may not
always be utilized to their true potential. Integrating APs into general practice may provide
much needed support to general practice that may be mutually beneficial for both parties and
their patients alike.
Aim: The aim of this study will be to explore GPs attitudes and opinions of integrating
Advanced Paramedics into rural general practice in Ireland.
Methods: A sequential explanatory strategy design was adopted, utilising a mixed
quantitative/qualitative methodology. The first phase of the study (quantitative research)
employed a quantitative questionnaire designed and distributed to a purposeful sample of GPs
attending a rural conference. The interview guide for the second phase of the study
(qualitative research), was informed by the first phase (quantitative research). Thirteen GPs
were recruited and participated in an online semi-structured interview. Interviews were
recorded and transcribed verbatim and analysed utilising thematic analysis.
Results: Twenty-seven GPs responded to the survey. Response demographics replicate
previous studies on rural general practice with many participants over sixty years of age.
Majority of GPs were familiar with AP practice. Most GPs favoured APs performing patient
assessment and management of a variety of clinical procedures on their behalf in the
community and within their surgery. Data was scrutinized through thematic analysis and
categorised into subthemes and three main themes emerged: GPs described the future
healthcare challenges facing general practice,
primary care and paramedicine partnership and
theory to tangibility where potential opportunities for collaboration and support could be
exploited

▼ International trends indicate that countries promote and encourage the use of interprofessional teams as the preferred approach to delivering
healthcare services to address the health and social care needs of their citizens.
Healthcare policy reflects a universal acceptance of the efficacy of interprofessional teamwork.
Healthcare organisations implement support mechanisms to stimulate and encourage professional interactions. Teamwork is associated with a range of positive outcomes and is deemed to be beneficial for patients, professionals and service providers. It has gained credibility in terms of the quality of care provided, levels of effectiveness and organisational efficiencies. Despite these recommendations interprofessional teamwork in
healthcare has remained elusive in practice. There is criticism of its arbitrary application across
healthcare settings and a lack of understanding related to the complexities and challenges involved therein. In 2001, the Irish Government published its
Primary Care Strategy which placed interprofessional teamwork central to the delivery of health and social care services in Ireland. Currently there are 423 teams in place.
Primary healthcare professionals were assigned to teams, membership and full participation was assumed. However there is significant reporting related to the lack of progress in terms of embedding interprofessional teamwork in practice. This study examined the levels of interprofessional teamwork achieved. It also examined the factors that may have facilitated or inhibited teamwork progress. A partially mixed methods sequential study design was employed, conducted in two phases: a quantitative survey examined the relationships between and predictors of collaborative behaviour (n=493), and a qualitative interview study examined the experiences of
primary healthcare professionals of teamwork and the perceived facilitators and barriers that exist (n=26). Results from phase one indicated moderately positive scoring for collaborative behaviour. The perceived benefits of teamwork was the strongest predictor of collaborative behaviour, however the benefits score was the lowest, suggesting professionals do not experience adequate beneficial effects of teamwork in practice. Profession was of significant influence and there was a dearth of organisational support and resources in place. The results from the interviews conducted in phase two revealed four major themes; Conflict & Consensus, Them & Us, Implementation Paradox and Resourced to Fail. The interview data highlighted a significant ideological disparity between the medical and allied health professions which challenges engagement. In terms of the organisation, a severe lack of funding, appropriate infrastructure and a clear team governance framework has created barriers for teamwork. However most damaging is the lack of organisational awareness and understanding, mandatory application of a rigid team model and lack of consultation as perceived by the professions. This situation has resulted in considerable levels…

▼ Background:
The overall quality of care has been defined in terms of a set of seven core attributes taken from contemporary conceptual frameworks for assessing
primary healthcare systems. Attributes are assessed using sub-attribute questions picked from previously developed and validated national level survey instruments. Data has been collected through structured questionnaire survey utilizing Likert items and scale to capture respondents’ perceptions of care. Both descriptive and nonparametric statistical methods have been used for data analysis. Information on demographic factors helped to understand the response patterns across different cohort groups.
Key objectives:
1) To determine the perception of patients and physicians regarding the overall quality of care and its constituent elements delivered through the
primary healthcare clinics in Winnipeg.
2) To compare the perceptions about different quality of care attributes as expressed by participating patients and physicians.
Results:
Both patients and physicians have positive views about the overall quality of care (median score >=4 on a 1-6 scale). Regarding individual attributes, “Interpersonal communication” and “Respectfulness” received the highest average score (5) and long-term health management received the lowest score (2). Patient and physician responses were found to be statistically different for access, comprehensiveness and long-term health management. The long wait time for seeing a doctor appeared to be a widely shared concern – only 43% of the patients urgently needing to see a doctor could get a same-day appointment; for non-urgent cases, less than 3% got a same-day appointment. Patients with higher educational levels appeared to be more critical about the quality of care; conversely, patients in good health rated the quality of care attributes more favourably.
Conclusion:
Patients and physicians are generally satisfied with the overall quality of care. However, patients have identified issues related to access, comprehensiveness of care and long-term health management. Patients concerns were found to be consistent with national level results. Long wait time was also flagged as a key concern.
Primary healthcare clinics should proactively seek patient feedback to identify issues and improve their quality of service.

▼ Electronic health records (EHRs) play a critical role in improving the quality of health care and patient safety. An EHR can facilitate the provision of patient care by providing several clinical benefits to both the healthcare providers and patients. The literature shows that these systems are being increasingly adopted in many healthcare settings globally. There is also evidence that various factors can hinder or promote the adoption and use of the systems. Many hospitals in Saudi Arabia are also rapidly adopting EHRs; however, the same is not true in primary care settings. As such, there is little published literature examining the adoption and use of EHRs in primary care in Saudi Arabia. This study evaluated the perceptions of healthcare professionals towards the adoption of EHRs in primary care centres (PCCs) in Riyadh City, Saudi Arabia.
This thesis was based on a modified version of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as a theoretical framework and drew from both the published literature and the findings of a large survey of healthcare providers to inform a conceptual framework for the adoption and use of EHRs in primary care settings in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. The adopted TAM has five attributes, namely external variables, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitude towards use, and intention to use that help to explain users‘ behaviour towards the adoption, acceptance, and use of technology. Applying this model, this thesis examined the influence of individual, organisational and system characteristics on the healthcare professionals‘ perceptions of EHR in primary care, including perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and satisfaction, to predict the adoption and use of EHR in PCCs in Saudi Arabia and the GCC countries at large.
Using a positivist paradigm as the research lens, the study employed a survey to evaluate the perceptions of healthcare professionals in primary care in Riyadh city, Saudi Arabia. All 1710 healthcare providers working in PCCs in Riyadh city were invited via email to complete an online survey on the secure Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) system between 30 November 2017 and 30 January 2018. A total of 1127 participants completed the survey, representing a 65.9% response rate. Quantitative results were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (IBM(^®) SPSS v.20.0), and open-ended comments were thematically analysed in MS Excel.
The findings from the survey identified that the majority of primary care providers in Riyadh perceived EHRs to be an important tool in primary care (77.0%). Respondents reported a strong level of agreement across several areas of potential benefits to the individual providers or primary care organisations. For example, the benefits to the individual healthcare professionals included improved communication between healthcare providers and patients (73.7%), reduced time in health data documentation (75.2%), and provision of access to practice standards (73.6%). Some of the benefits to PCCs were…

▼ ABSTRAKT BAKGRUND Att inte se patienten men samtidigt ge säkra, goda och evidensbaserade råd och bedöma rätt vårdnivå är en stor utmaning för distriktssköterskan i telefonrådgivning. Att arbeta med telefonrådgivning är en stor del av distriktssköterskans arbete på en vårdcentral. SYFTE Syftet med studien var att beskriva distriktssköterskans upplevelser av att arbeta med telefonrådgivning. METOD Kvalitativ induktiv ansats har använts med semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med tio distriktssköterskor och en kvalitativ latent innehållsanalys användes för att analysera textmassa. RESULTAT Resultatet bygger på ett tema och fem kategorier. Temat är; Svårt att möta allas behov med begränsade möjligheter men också utmanande och Kategorierna är; Det svåra arbetet med telefonrådgivning, När resurser saknas är det svårt att arbeta med telefonrådgivning, Att känna sig utsatt tar energi, Olika faktorer för ett bra arbete i telefonrådgivning och Ett arbete som är en utmaning. Resultatet visar att arbeta med telefonrådgivning på en vårdcentral upplevs som svårt när distriktssköterskan och patienten inte förstår varandra och det är svårt att alltid känna att de fattat rätt beslut. Det upplevs svårt att arbeta med telefonrådgivning och endast ha fyra till fem min/samtal och det är svårt att bedöma vård när läkartider inte finns. Distriktssköterskorna upplever att arbeta med telefonrådgivning är en stor utmaning KONKLUSION Att arbeta som distriktssköterska i telefonrådgivning mot primärvården är en utmaning. Att inte se patienten kan göra det svårt att fatta beslut. Att inte patienten kommer fram till sin vårdcentral skapar ett vårdlidande för patienten.

▼ Distinct dimensions of quality vary in importance depending on the context in which quality assurance effort takes place. Working through the process of quality assurance and continuous quality improvement may create an environment for transforming the health services and achieving positive health outcome goals. Substantial improvements have been observed in the coverage and access to health service delivery in Ethiopia. However, the quality of care has been lagging behind. The purpose of this study was to develop guidelines for care to enhance quality health services at Gindabarat District, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia. The study followed a mixed method approach. The participants were purposively included in the study based on their availability, from a total of 7 government health facilities from the Gindabarat District. Self-administered questionnaires and interviews were used to collect data from samples of 127 health care workers and 29 health facilities managers, respectively. Collected data were analysed using SPSS Version 24 and ATLAS TI 8 respectively. The results revealed barriers towards quality health services delivery which were lack of equipment and supplies (inadequacy of blocks, materials, medical equipment; lack of sustainable supplies of drugs); inadequate human resources (low retention of skilled staff; absence of focal person assigned for quality improvement; shortages of health workers); absence of standard operating procedures (protocols, guidelines and manuals); and dissatisfaction of health care providers with services provided at the District. Based on the results, guidelines were developed to enhance quality health care delivery. The reccommendations were aimed at improvement approaches at all levels of health service delivery.

▼ The objectives of this study were to compare
primary care accessibility across the provinces and to identify the key ideas, institutions and interests that have contributed to the formation of
primary care policy reform. First, a logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine if there was a difference in accessibility across the provinces as measured by whether or not respondents had a “regular medical doctor” (n = 115,220). Second, a documentary analysis was conducted of publicly available
primary health care policy literature published from 2000 – 2013 (n = 103). Differences in accessibility were observed, suggesting that provincial
primary care policies directly affect residents’ access to
primary care. Ontario residents had the best access to
primary care of the 10 provinces. The ideas, institutions and interests identified at the national level have produced somewhat different outcomes for
primary care reform in the provinces, as provincial priorities make national goals concrete.

▼ Objective:
To recognize the difference of patient care offered by
primary care family physician, internist and generalist, according to the incidence rate of the acute complications, time to event interval of the chronic complications and the cost of OPD, admission and emergency care.
Method:
The first diagnosed diabetes patients were extracted from the National Health Insurance database, utilizing data from 2001 to 2007 to fit the criteria. Patients with catastrophic illness and who attended to the
primary care clinic less than 20% of total OPD visits were excluded. The incidence rate of DM acute complications such as hypoglycemia, NKHS and DKA, and the time to event interval of DM chronic complications such as CAD, stroke, DM nephropathy, DM retinopathy, polyneuropathy and DM peripheral artery disease were investigated. Furthermore, the cost of OPD visit, emergency care and hospital admission was also evaluated.
Result:
The patients cared by
primary care family physician tended to get hypoglycemia more frequently, but less likely to get hyperglycemic complications including both DKA and NKHS.The family physician did not recognize the large vessel complications well but can effectively control the diabetic neuropathy and diabetic nephropathy. Compare to those cared by internist, the patients cared by family physician have the lower expense on diabetic related OPD visit, but a little higher on emergency and admission. Totally, the patients cared by family physician have the lowest cost compared to internist and generalist, but without significant difference.
Conclusion:
The cost of OPD visit was significantly lower in patient cared by
primary care family physician compared to internist without sacrifice the quality of care. Further study was necessary due to the limitation of the application of secondary database.

▼ Primary health care (PHC) is a term used to refer to the parts of the health system that people interact with most of the time when health care is needed. It is considered the first point of contact for health services in Canada. Access to PHC services is an important issue regarding health care delivery in Canada today. There is a need to advance current understanding of access to PHC providers at local scales such as neighbourhoods. The
primary objective of this study is to examine the variation in geographic (spatial) accessibility to permanently located
primary care services in the Canadian urban environment. Furthermore, the analysis of spatial patterns of accessibility, both visually and statistically using GIS, is to provide a better understanding of among and between neighbourhood variations.
This research took place in the 14 urban areas across Canada: Victoria and Vancouver, British Columbia; Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta; Saskatoon, Saskatchewan; Winnipeg, Manitoba; Hamilton, and Toronto, Ontario; Montréal and Québec, Quebec; Halifax, Nova Scotia; St. John’s, Newfoundland; Saint John, New Brunswick; and Ottawa–Gatineau, Ontario and Quebec. A GIS based method, the Three-Step Floating Catchment Area (3SFCA), was applied to determine the spatial accessibility to PHC services (accessibility score). First, for increasing geocoding match rates with reduced positional uncertainty, an integrated geocoding technique was developed after an empirical comparison of the geocoding results based on manually built and online geocoding services and subsequently applied to generate geographic coordinates of PHC practices which are an essential element for measuring potential access to health care.
Next, the results of the Three-Step Floating Catchment Area (3SFCA) method was compared with simpler approachs to calculate the City level physician-to-population ratios and this research highlights the benefit of using the 3SFCA method over simpler approaches in urban areas by providing similar or comparable results of City level physician-to-population ratios with the advantage of intra-urban measurements. Further, the results point out that considerable spatial variation in geographical accessibility to PHC services exists within and across Canadian urban areas and indicate the existence of clusters of poorly served neighbourhoods in all urban areas.
In order to investigate the low accessibility scores in relation to population health care needs, spatial statistical modeling techniques were applied that revealed variations in geographical accessibility to PHC services by comparing the accessibility scores to different socio-demographic characteristics across Canadian urban settings. In order to analyse how these relationships between accessibility and predictors vary at a local scale within an urban area, a local spatial regression technique (i.e., geographically weighted regression or GWR) was applied in two urban areas. The results of GWR modelling demonstrates intra-urban variations in the relationships between…

▼ Background: Drugs are essential components of the health system and their rational use is vital to delivering quality and efficient
healthcare services. However, inappropriate prescribing is a common rational drug use problem globally, particularly in developing countries including Nigeria. Despite measures to address this problem, inappropriate drug use continues to be a major public health problem in Nigeria. Aim: This study assessed rational drug use (RDU), with a focus on rational prescribing and factors affecting it, among
primary healthcare providers working in
primary healthcare facilities of a LGA in Northwestern Nigeria.
Methods: The study was a cross sectional descriptive study and it included retrospective review of patient encounters and interviews with prescribing
healthcare providers in sampled health facilities. Stratified random sampling method was used to select 20 public
primary healthcare facilities and 30 patient encounters were drawn by systematic random sampling from each facility. One hundred and sixty three prescribing
healthcare providers in the health facilities were also included in the study. Adapted WHO's drug use study tools and a structured self-administered questionnaire were used to collect data. Data were analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS Version 17) software and presented as contingency table with chi square test used to test for relationship between variables with statistical significance taken at p < 0.05. Ethical approval was obtained from the University of the Western Cape Research Ethics Committee and Kaduna State Ministry of Health, and permission from local stakeholders. Confidentiality of individual patients,
healthcare providers and health facilities data was maintained. Results: The prescribing staff at the selected facilities were predominantly Nurses/Midwives and community health assistants with SCHEWs constituting the majority (60.8%). More than half (54.4%) of providers did not know about the concept of RDU. Similarly, the computed knowledge score of RDU revealed that the majority (74.4%) had poor knowledge of the concept. Knowledge was significantly associated with duration of service, providers' previous training in rational drug use and professional status (p<0.05), with the CHOs having better knowledge of RDU compared with other professional cadres. High antibiotic use (68.3% in retrospective review and 82.9% in survey) and injection use (9.5% in retrospective review and 12% in survey) were found in the study with significant proportions of providers admitting that all cases of URTI should receive antibiotics (72.3% ) and that patients could be prescribed injections if they requested for it (35.3%). The Standing Order was the main source of information for the majority (50.6%) of providers and it served as the major influence affecting prescribing practices. Conclusion: This study revealed a poor understanding and knowledge of RDU among
healthcare providers. High antibiotic and injection use also reflected providers' poor attitude to…

▼ Improving the quality of newborn care services and accelerating the service utilization of sick young infants is required to contribute to the reduction of neonatal mortality and improve the wellbeing of the newborns. The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness of neonatal
healthcare services in the
primary healthcare units in the north-west of Ethiopia and develop guideline for effective neonatal care. A mixed method approach with a sequential explanatory design was employed to explore factors affecting the effectiveness of the neonatal
healthcare services. Interviewer-administered questionnaires were administered to 221 health workers and health extension workers in 142 health facilities; and service statistics abstracted for 767 sick young infants’ from the sick young infant registers. Data was entered in the EpiData 3.1, exported to SPSS and STATA for analysis. In the qualitative study, twenty-six participants from the health
centers and health posts were interviewed through focus group discussions. Thematic analysis was undertaken to explore factors affecting neonatal
healthcare services. Results: The quality of newborn care with the domains of newborn resuscitation, follow-up care after resuscitation and thermal care; immediate care and breastfeeding advice for very low birthweight babies were found to be moderate at
primary hospitals and urban health centres; low at rural health centres and health posts. The availability of essential equipment is significantly associated with the quality of neonatal care provision in the health facilities (p < 0.05). More than forty percent of health facilities were not meeting the quality of case management tasks for sick young infants, and the newborn care knowledge of health providers is significantly associated with the quality of sick young infants’ management (p < 0.05). The sick young infants’ service utilisation was only 6.3 percent from the
expected sick young infants’ population. Overall, the effectiveness of the neonatal
healthcare services has a significant association with the health facilitates readiness [95%CI: 0.134-0.768]. Conclusion: The quality of neonatal
healthcare provision is low to moderate; and the service utilization of sick young infants is very low. Thus, the rural health centers and health posts should be prioritised for the effective neonatal care.

▼ A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Masters Degree in Management from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics
We address the potential integration of the Hospital Dr. Fernando Fonseca E.P.E.
with the Primary Care Units in its geographical coverage area in a Local Health Unit.
We apply semi-structured interviews in order to understand how to best implement
this model of local organization in the referred case. We classify the interviews of
each unit according to pre-determined criteria and suggest measures to be
implemented. Results demonstrate that the hospital is more able to promptly assume
a change process towards the new organizational model when compared to the
primary care units. Moreover, we reached the conclusion that the achievement of the
expected benefits to the whole depends heavily on local characteristics and
implementation process. There is the need to invest in key elements such as the
maintenance and renewal of infrastructures and in a common information system.
Albeit these investments do not assure the achievement of the benefits of an
integrated management system per se, they are essential in the process of
constructing an unique entity.

Zdravstvenu pismenost možemo definisati kao lične,
kognitivne i socijalne vještine kojima se određuje motivacija i
sposobnost pojedinaca da dođu do informacija, razumiju ih i koriste
kako bi unaprijedili i održali dobro zdravlje. U procesu pružanja
zdravstvene zaštite, zdravstvena pismenost predstavlja zajedničku
odgovornost unutar koje pacijenti i zdravstveni radnici moraju
komunicirati svako na način da ga onaj drugi razumije, kako bi
mogli zajednički i odgovorno donositi odluke. Istraživanje je
provedeno s ciljem da se ocijeni pouzdanost i valjanost instrumenta
za mjerenje zdravstvene pismenosti, ocijeni zdravstvena pismenost
korisnika usluga primarne zdravstvene zaštite na teritoriji
Republike Srpske (Bosna i Hercegovina), identifikuju faktori koji
su povezani sa zdravstvenom pismenošću i predlože mjere iz domena
promocije zdravlja za unapređenje zdravstvene pismenosti
stanovništva. Istraživanje je provedeno kao studija presjeka u dva
doma zdravlja–Prijedor i Bijeljina, a uzorak je činilo 768
ispitanika. Instrument istraživanja bio je upitnik STOFHLA
(Skraćeni test za ispitivanje funkcionalne zdravstvene pismenosti
kod odraslog stanovništva–Short Test of Functional Health Literacy
in Adults). Pored ovog upitnika, korišten je i upitnik u kome se
nalaze pitanja koja obuhvataju: demografske, socijalne i ekonomske
karakteristike ispitanika, samoprocjenu zdravlja, korišćenje
zdravstvene službe, prisustvo hroničnih bolesti, faktore rizika za
zdravlje i zadovoljstvo životom. Podaci su analizirani metodama
deskriptivne i inferencijalne statistike. Neadekvatnu i marginalnu
zdravstvenu pismenost ima 34,6% naših ispitanika, a adekvatnu
65,4%. Utvrđena je povezanost zdravstvene pismenosti u ispitivanoj
populaciji sa starosnom dobi, nivoom obrazovanja, pripadnosti domu
zdravlja, mjestom stanovanja i migracionim kretanjima, bračnim
statusom, materijalnim stanjem, prisustvom i brojem bolesti,
promjenom zdravstvenog stanja i samoprocjenom zdravlja, brojem
posjeta porodičnim doktorima i brojem hospitalizacija, nedovoljnom

▼ Title: Developing a Database to Drive Ambulatory Healthcare Innovation
Ashley Shaw, Russell Phillips MD
Purpose: Based on our knowledge, there is no dominant nationwide platform for finding and sharing workflows of healthcare delivery innovation projects that addresses on-the-ground clinicians’ nitty-gritty implementation needs. Characterization of diffusion patterns of healthcare delivery innovation knowledge among clinicians reveals dependence on informal networks and condition or setting-specific learning collaboratives along with time-intensive integration of information from conferences, professional organizations, and boutique consulting opportunities. The author developed CareZooming, a web-based platform for on-the-ground clinicians with the evidence and access to expert advice they need to implement their next healthcare delivery project. The CareZooming platform is comprised of 1) a database of quality improvement and healthcare delivery innovation project workflows from ambulatory care settings around the United States and 2) a network of clinical leaders who provide “eConsults for healthcare delivery” to clinicians seeking advice through the platform’s CareZooming Connections service. The author will first describe the platform creation journey and then explore results of aims to 1) explore user perceptions of the utility of the CareZooming Connections “eConsults for healthcare delivery” service 2) to better understand prior knowledge of healthcare professions students who develop database content for CareZooming and 3) to explore clinician perceptions of current resources utilized in the information-gathering phase of healthcare delivery innovation.
Methods: Email surveys created on GoogleForms were administered 1) to CareZooming Connections participants categorized as “Teachers” or “Learners” directly after consulting sessions had been completed 2) to CareZooming healthcare professions student editors recruited in January 2019 to assess their prior knowledge before job training and 3) to clinician subscribers to the weekly CareZooming News e-newsletter.
Results: The CareZooming Connection Review Survey response rate was 57%. The CareZooming Student Editor Pre-Survey response rate was 80%; this data represents pre-intervention data and post-intervention data will be collected for comparison in May 2019. As of 26 February 2019, the CareZooming User Survey garnered 2 responses but is still accepting responses.
Conclusions: Our results indicate that CareZooming Connection “Learners” save on average 3 hours and $150 with our service and are very likely to recommend the service to colleagues. Student editors rate their prior knowledge of healthcare delivery as “Poor” to “Good” but not “Excellent.” The two clinicians who have responded to the CareZooming User survey to date perceive remarkably low rates of success at connecting with peer experts who are well matched to their implementation needs.

Ungdomsmottagningar drivs utan nationellt uppdrag och av olika uppdragsgivare och utan enhetliga uppdragsbeskrivningar. Detta skulle kunna vara orsaken till de stora skillnader i bland annat kompetens, struktur och tillgänglighet som rapporter pekar på. Detta skulle kunna leda till bristande eller varierande vårdkvalitet.
Metod
Genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalytisk ansats undersöks om ett strategiskt urval av styrdokument från ungdomsmottagningsverksamheten behandlar de kvalitetsområden som framgår i Socialstyrelsens föreskrift om ”God Vård”.
Reslutat
De styrdokument som undersökts ger ett samlat intryck av vad en ungdomsmottagning arbetar med. De har alla ett övergripande mål med i stort sett samma betydelse; att främja ungdomars fysiska och psykiska hälsa, stärka deras identitetsutveckling så att de kan hantera sin sexualitet samt att förebygga oönskade graviditeter och sexuellt överförbara infektioner. Detta mål anger ramen för verksamheten. De styrdokument som studerats uppvisar stora skillnader, framför allt i hur utförligt man beskriver sina mål, samt i hur uppföljnings- och kvalitetsförbättringsarbetet beskrivs. De dokument som bäst täcker God vårds kvalitetsmål, är mer generella och lämnar större tolkningsutrymme till bland annat personal och huvudmän. Detta skulle kunna ge stora skillnader i vårdkvalitet, vilket också påvisats i svenska studier och rapporter. Ytterligare forskning om hur personal och huvudmän har uppfattat ungdomsmottagningarnas uppdrag behövs göras för att stärka denna teori.
Slutsats
Utifrån de undersökta dokumenten kan sägas att alla ungdomsmottagningar inte har fått liknande förutsättningar för att arbeta på ett kvalitetssäkert sätt utifrån vad God Vård anger. De mål som anges i styrdokumenten lämnar oftast för stort tolkningsutrymme. Det gemensamma övergripande målet för ungdomsmottagningarna tycks finnas, men hur man når dit är mer oklart, d.v.s. den gemensamma styrningen saknas.
ABSTRACT
Aim
The purpose of this paper is to examine whether Swedish “ungdomsmottagningar” (youth center for services and counseling of sexual and reproductive health) have been given similar opportunities to work in a quality safe way from the policy documents that a sample of clinics use. Today all ”ungdomsmottagningar” are providing care without national mandate, by different healthcare providors and without homogenous mission. This could be a reason for the vast differences reported, in for example in competence, structure and access. There is a risk that the result is a lack of quality of care.

▼ The multidimensional nature of the AIDS pandemic continues to pose challenges within all
spheres of society, for example health and religion, human rights, social development politics,
economics, human sexuality, and Christian theologies - in particular, the pastoral and caring
ministries, as well as the educational ministries. Its multidimensional nature is further
exacerbated by factors of, stigma, gender power-relations, poverty, and violence against
women and children.
The Anglican Church of Southern Africa, in particular the Diocese of False Bay, has responded
to the challenges relating to stigma reduction through many programmes, campaigns and
workshops. Despite the implementation of the Isiseko Sokomoleza HIV/AIDS Programme in
the Diocese of False Bay, it has had a limited impact on reducing the stigma associated with
HIV/AIDS. As such, stigma remains a critical challenge in the pastoral response of the Church.
In light of this observation, the question pertinent to this research project is; “What are the most
significant reasons for the limited impact of the Isiseko Sokomoleza HIV/AIDS Programme in
the Diocese of False Bay?” The framework of Practical Theology, with special emphasis on
pastoral care and counselling, will be used as the theological framework to explore the reasons
for the limited impact. In order to achieve this goal, the
Primary Healthcare Model (2012)
introduced in Brazil and Cuba was utilised. This does not imply that HIV/AIDS is only a
medical problem, on the contrary, this medical model of implementation assists the pastoral
model of the Church to analyse the reasons for the limited impact of the Isiseko Sokomoleza
programme.

▼ Pakistan is the world’s seventh largest nation in terms of population and is inhabited by people of diverse ethnicities and cultures. The country experiences multiple social, economic, political challenges which have consequences for its people’s lives and health, especially for women and their newborn babies. Women in the country are considered to have a lower social status, lesser economic autonomy, less role in decision making for health and healthcare seeking for themselves and their newborns. Risks of maternal (maternal duration spans over the entire pregnancy and first 6 weeks postpartum) health related complications and mortality in Pakistan are one of the highest in the world. Women are also known to commonly suffer from symptoms of common mental health problems during the maternal period. The inter-action of women’s poor health, inadequate health services and health care practices, and insufficient skilled care at birth makes the maternal period for Pakistani women one of the most dangerous and life threatening experience throughout the world.
Newborns in Pakistan are at particular risk for neonatal death during the first month of life. Socio-demographic, economic and health services related aspects influence their survival and health, especially in the rural areas of the country. Female newborns are at a greater disadvantage than their male counterparts. Those living in geographically remote areas, having poorer economic conditions, uneducated mothers, and having a birth order of more than 6 have lesser likelihood of survival during the first month of life. Women’s health status may also impact adversely on the health and survival of newborns. The newborn care practices prevalent in Pakistani communities, and the traditional methods used during an episode of illness may also negatively influence the health of newborns and their survival.
There has been only very limited research into the effectiveness of the primary health care system in Pakistan. The separate and/or combined effectiveness of the health system, in particular in relation to birth outcomes and neonatal health has not been investigated. There has been no systematic ascertainment of the utilization of primary antenatal health care services and of private traditional and often unskilled care in Pakistan. These gaps in knowledge mean that the contribution of the primary health care system to maternal, perinatal and neonatal mortality in the country is not known. Although some improvements in maternal health indicators have been achieved, in particular in the physical health of women and children in the country, the psychological aspects of women’s health and its impact on child health is only just beginning to be researched. Overall therefore there was a need for research which investigates the contributions of the limited primary antenatal health care; and both physical and psychological aspects of maternal health as determinants of birth weight and…

▼ Patients who have chronic diseases are often readmitted to the hospital within 30 days of being discharged. In the United States preventable hospital readmissions cost approximately 12-17.4 billion annually. The Institute of
Healthcare Improvement [IHI] has identified one key measure for reducing preventable readmissions and that is a timely post hospital follow-up visit. Although this seems to be a simple task, studies have revealed that as many as one-third of patients discharged from the hospital are not following up with their
primary care provider. In North Dakota the percentages of patients with chronic diseases such as heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, type 2 diabetes, and pneumonia have steadily increased over the last several years. A North Dakota critical access hospital report revealed a high percentage of patients with a chronic disease are being readmitted within 30 days. Identifying barriers to care in North Dakota can help to reduce the rate of readmission within the state. This study seeks to identify perceived barriers as observed by
primary care nurse practitioners to improve patient outcomes and reduce hospital readmission rates.

▼ Bakgrund: Förändringsarbete är något de flesta företag behöver arbeta med för att kunna anpassa sig till en föränderlig omvärld och fortsatt vara konkurrenskraftiga på marknaden. Den ständiga utvecklingen i samhället har även medfört att företag behöver vidta informationsteknologiska förändringar vilket i sin tur även inbegriper ett arbete med digitalisering. Den svenska vården, både såväl offentlig som privat, står inför en pågående förändring av digitalisering där bland annat digitala vårdmöten är något som prioriteras och implementeras i verksamheterna. Syfte: Studiens syfte är att i en jämförelse undersöka hur svensk offentlig respektive privat verksamhet arbetar vid digital verksamhetsförändring i form av implementering av digitala vårdmöten. Detta både i form av vad för skäl de har till sin förändring samt hur de går tillväga vid implementeringen av digitala vårdmöten. Genomförande: En komparativ studie har utförts gällande en privat samt en offentlig organisation tillhörande den svenska hälso- och sjukvården. Studien följer en kvalitativ forskningsstrategi tillsammans med en abduktiv forskningsdesign. Litteratur samt vetenskapliga artiklar är den data som ligger till grund för studiens teoretiska referensram. Studiens empiriska material har samlats in genom intervjuer samt viss data även inhämtats från dokument utgivna av studiens deltagande organisationer. Slutsatser: Vad som driver organisationerna till implementering av digitala vårdmöten förklaras av en anpassning till omvärldens utveckling och konkurrerande aktörer. Olikheter i drivande faktorer kan uppstå mellan den offentliga och privata sektorn i form av ekonomiska aspekter då den privata verksamheten är vinstdrivande till skillnad från den offentliga verksamheten. Tillvägagångssättet att implementera förändringen i organisationerna är likartat och ett stort fokus riktas mot vårdgivares egna kompetens i bedömning av de digitala vårdmötenas möjligheter. Det finns därmed mer som förenar än skiljer den offentliga respektive den privata organisationen åt i deras arbete med implementering av digitala vårdmöten.
Background: The process of adaptation is something most companies need to work on to be able to adjust to a changing environment and continue to be competitive in the market. The constant development of society has also meant that companies need to change the way they utilize information technology, which in turn also includes working with digitalisation. Swedish healthcare, both public and private, is facing an ongoing change in digitalisation where digital healthcare meetings are among the priorities that are beeing implemented in the operations. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to, through a comparison, examine how companies in Swedish public and private sectors work on altering their digital business operations by implementing digital healthcare meetings. This both in terms of what reasons they have for…

▼ Enligt Socialstyrelsen (2011) avlider cirka 1 500 människor årligen i Sverige på grund av vårdrelaterade infektioner. Den viktigaste åtgärden för att förebygga vårdrelaterade infektioner är att arbeta utifrån basala hygienrutiner (Socialstyrelsen, 2006). Det är idag oklart hur följsamheten till basala hygienrutiner ser ut inom primärvården i Sverige och bland distriktssköterskor. Syftet med studien var att undersöka distriktssköterskors följsamhet till basala hygienrutiner inom primärvården. Studien var baserad på strukturerade observationer och en enkät. Observationerna utfördes av distriktssköterskestudenter och genomfördes vid nio vårdcentraler i Uppsala.
Observationsstudien visade att distriktssköterskorna hade god följsamhet till rådande hygienrutiner gällande klädregler, att hålla långt hår uppfäst och fingernaglar kortklippta samt till att inte använda färgat nagellack, lösnaglar och att inte bära ring. Det finns behov av förbättring av distriktssköterskornas följsamhet till handdesinfektion, att inte bära armbandsur samt korrekt användning av handskar och skyddskläder. Enkätstudien visade att distriktssköterskor inte har tillräckliga kunskaper om basala hygienrutiner.
Det finns behov av förbättring inom den enskilda distriktssköterskans hygienarbete och inom arbetsgivarnas ansvarsområden gällande hygien. För att distriktssköterskan skall kunna arbeta med att förebygga smittspridning, behövs uppdaterade kunskaper och mer utbildning inom området. Arbetet med hygien bör lyftas fram och uppmuntras inom primärvården, i större utsträckning än vad som görs idag.
Approximately 1500 people dies, every year in Sweden, as a result of healthcare associated infections (Socialstyrelsen, 2011). The most important action for preventing healthcare associated infections is compliance to hygiene routines (Socialstyrelsen, 2006). Today there is scarce knowledge about the compliance to hygiene routines within the area of primary healthcare and among district nurses in Sweden. This study aimed to examine the compliance to hygiene routines among district nurses in primary healthcare. Data was collected through observations and a questionnaire. The observations were carried out by nurses currently studying to become district nurses and were implemented on nine primary healthcare centers in Uppsala.
The study showed that the district nurses had good compliance to the prevailing hygiene regulations concerning, clothing, hair, finger nails and to not carrying fingerings. There are however needs of improvement in the district nurses compliance to handdesinfection, not carrying wristwatches and correct use of gloves and protective aprons. Data from the questionnaire shows that district nurses don’t have sufficient knowledge about basic hygiene routines.
There are needs of improvement within the individual district nurse's hygiene work and within the employers' area of responsibility concerning hygiene. In order to making it possible for the district nurse to work with preventing transmission of…

▼ The global movement towards enhancing inter-professional collaboration in patient
care is in light of the increasing potency of drugs and complexity of drug regimens,
particularly in the chronically ill where poly-pharmacy is rife, collaborative patient
management by general practitioners and community pharmacists, in particular, has
the potential to enhance patient therapeutic outcomes in
primary healthcare.
Literature from other parts of the world has enumerated the advantages of
collaboration. South Africa with its unusual quadruple burden of disease and human
resource deficient public
healthcare system would benefit from collaboration
between general practitioners and community pharmacists through expanded roles
for community pharmacists to enable them to make more meaningful contributions
to
primary healthcare regimens. Particularly with the introduction of the National
Health Insurance (NHI) programme. This dissertation aims to assess from general practitioners‟ perspectives: the current level and stage of collaboration (using the collaborative working relationship (CWR) model proposed by McDonough and Doucette, 2001) between general practitioners and community pharmacists in patient care, if general practitioners‟ perceptions of the professional roles of community pharmacists in patients‟ care can influence desired collaboration (prospects of enhanced future collaboration) and how do general practitioners envision enhanced future collaboration between them and community pharmacists in patient care, possible barriers to the envisioned collaboration between the two practitioners, and how general practitioners‟ demographic characteristics influence inter-professional collaboration with
community pharmacists.
Sixty randomly selected consenting general practitioners in private practice
participated in a cross-sectional, face- to-face questionnaire study. The questionnaire
contained a range of statements with Likert scale response options. Data was
initially entered into Epi Info (version 3.5.1., 2008) and then exported to IBM SPSS
Statistical software for analysis (version19, 2010). Medians were used to summarize
descriptive data and Spearman‟s correlation coefficient, Mann-Whitney U Test and
Kruskal-Wallis Test was used for bivariate analysis. Ethical approval was granted by
the Senate Research and International Relations Committee, University of the
Western Cape (Ethical Clearance Number: 10/4/29).
The results indicated low-levels of current collaboration at stage 0 of the CWR
model between general practitioners and community pharmacists. A statistically
significant correlation was observed between general practitioners‟ perceptions of
the professional roles of community pharmacists and desired collaboration
(prospects of enhanced future collaboration), [p=0.0005]. Good prospects of
enhanced future collaboration between general practitioners and community
pharmacists were observed. General practitioners identified barriers to collaboration
to include: the lack of remuneration for…

▼ Background: The impact children with complex healthcare needs have on the healthcare system is significant and requires a multidisciplinary response. Congenital anomaly (CA) is a group of conditions requiring complex and variable input from primary and secondary healthcare. This thesis explores the literature on health system preparedness for children with complex healthcare needs and quantitatively describes healthcare use for a population of children with CA, an exemplar for children with complex healthcare needs. Methods: Routine health data from primary care was explored to identify children with CA and linked to secondary care data, outpatient records, and questionnaire data from a multi-ethnic prospective birth cohort over a five-year period. Rates of CA were calculated and healthcare use for children with and without CA was analysed. Results: Out of a birth cohort of 13,857 children, 860 had a CA. Using primary care data for children aged 0 to 5 years, the number of children with CA was found to be 620.6 per 10,000 live births, above the national rate of 226.5 per 10,000 live births. Healthcare use was higher for children with CA than those without CA. Demand for use of hospital services for children with CA was higher (Incident rate ratio (IRR) 4.38, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.90 to 4.92) than demand for primary care services (IRR, 1.27, 95% CI 1.20 to 1.35). Conclusion: These results suggest that using primary care data as a source of CA case ascertainment reveals more children with CA than previously thought. These results have significant implications for commissioning healthcare services for children with complex healthcare needs.

▼ Theoretical and methodological contributions of
nursing entrepreneurship and starting an independent practice
within the Nurse Practitioner arena are sparse in American clinical
prospectuses. The American health care system is in need of
enhancement to better serve the
healthcare needs of all people so
there has never been a greater opportunity for NP entrepreneurial
thinking and implementation of new initiatives (Marshall, 2011).
Information regarding NP-led clinics is limited and NPs need to be
educated on elements of successful independent
healthcare ventures.
The purpose of this project was to enhance interest and knowledge
of starting a NP-led clinic.A review of the literature demonstrated
that entrepreneurial opportunities abound in areas that have not
yet been imagined for experts in advanced practice roles.
Independent practice opportunities allow NP entrepreneurs to pursue
their own personal vision and desire to improve
healthcare outcomes
using innovative approaches. Knowledgeable NPs are needed to
initiate and lead the introduction of change. Education about
entrepreneurship and source of NP-led clinics is an important issue
for NPs and health care consumers (Boore & Porter, 2012).A pre
and post-test survey instrument to measure the knowledge and
interest of how to start a NP-led clinic was developed consisting
of eleven components. An educational offering, based on Malcolm
Knowles theory of adult education, was created and presented to
enhance interest and knowledge of NPs in regards to starting NP-led
clinics in a rural Midwestern community. Upon completion of the
educational offering, NPs demonstrated enhanced knowledge, but did
not express enhanced interest in starting a NP-led
clinic.
